Non-Responsive iPad in Facebook

You're not alone. Same thing happening here with a three week old iPad 4 64. Facebook app is fine, this only happens with using Safari on the www.facebook.com web page. Likes and comments don't respond when you click on them. I don't have the crashing issue. The funny thing is it used to work up until about a week ago. Cleared cookies, turned cookies off and then on again. Rebooted, attempted using Chrome to see if it was a Safari update that may have caused it. It is as if I installed another app that is in conflict with the Safari / Facebook combination. The problem is I have no idea which one (if at all) it was that may have done it. My new iPad has a much larger capacity than my previous iPad 2 did so I've been having fun installing apps, games and movies pretty much daily. I can't specifically say when this actually happened but it is irritating as I really don't like the FB app and much prefer simply being able to browse with Safari.
I've tried searching the web for similar issues and solutions but have been unable to find anyone talking about this problem until this thread. Thank you. At least I now know I'm not losing my mind.

I'm new to iPad but have already experineced the same problem You're discussing above. Did not find any answer how to solve the problem so I will continue to follow this discussion.
I prefer the Internet version of Facebook on my new iPad 3 before the App version. Mainly because it comes in Swedish (the App only in English). Since some weeks ago I have faced a problem: I can't "like" or "comment" or do other actions on some of incoming issues. It happens now and then. Sometimes it's OK (as it should be) and sometimes it seems to be blocked: there's seems to be some kind of "reaction" but nothig happens really. It seem to be random: sometime it's OK or a certain frien and the nex time (same day) it's not but OK for another.
It this due to some wrong settings in my iPad or is it something coming from Facebook (trying to force me to use the app)? What can I do about it. For the time being I have to use my desktop to handle those actions that does not work in my iPad.

Actually, I am not using iOS6 ... It was only a few months ago I installed iOS5 ... When I did that, I lost all my iTunes music and spent an hour on the phone with Apple trying to get it back. I bet that's e problem, I need to install iOS 6. Hopefully things go better this time when I install it lol ... Thank you for your time!
